Cheating is an act of deception or fraud which has now become the normal thing in the world today, some people even named it as been "smart or sharp". Cheaters believe they are smarter than the one they cheated once they aren't caught. It's a pity humans have now cultivated numerous dubious ways of deal with their fellow human beings just because they want to acquire sudden wealth or bring down others.
I detest Cheating with passion, I'm a kind of person that do unto others what I would like them do to me and anyone who indulge in this unholy act is an unfaithful human being that can't be trusted for anything whatsoever.

Why Do People Cheat?
People cheat because they are dissatisfy with what they have and long after what others have. So, Cheating is majorly cause by discontentment or greed, a situation whereby people aren't satisfy with whatever they have and desire to have more than they deserved, then they end up cheating others to achieve their desire.
They didn't have the knowledge of "kamar" that "what goes around comes around", no matter what you do to others either good or bad it will surely come back to you. So there is always consequences when one cheats and wherever you find yourself, either among your peers, with business partners or within the family, you must try and deal with integrity so that you can be trusted.
Have I ever been cheated?
Although I'm a lady of few friends, I run my things majorly among my family and I try all my possible best to be truthful to the people I have the opportunity to meet so that I won't be tagged a distrustful fellow so I don't think in any scenario I've cheated someone cause I'm always careful of how I relate with others. But no matter how careful one might be not to cheat others there will still be someone who will want to cheat you. So YES I've been cheated before!
After my secondary school I applied for a teaching job at a primary school close to my house so as to have savings before gaining admission to the university. The proprietor of the school was the headmaster, so we agreed on five thousand naira as my monthly salary. My first payment was prompt before January 29th he paid my salary and I was super excited at least I received my payment as at well due, I never knew it was a welcoming service for me.
Then the following month end which was February the tune changed, the man didn't show up at the school when he was supposed to pay. On the long run he paid on the 5th of March, well I continued my work and thought its better than staying at home doing nothing. But I have it in mind to resign at the end of the term and look for another better alternative.
At the end of the third month no full salary, the man pleaded with us that he won't be able to pay full salary cause of the school fees debtors, so he paid half salary and told us to give him 2weeks to run round for the balance. Some of us refused but we later collected the money after he had pleaded with us and left for the holiday.
After 2 weeks we didn't hear anything from him, only for us to call him and wasn't reachable. For a whole month, this man was no where to be found till school resumes for another academic session. The funniest part was that the man didn't show up in school it was his wife that resumes and became the headmistress, she told us that her husband travelled and lost his phone that was why his line wasn't reachable for those that bothers to check on him.
Her attitude towards us wasn't pleasant but we all didn't bother, so we ask her for our salaries and the show started. She screamed at the top of her voice then insisted that her husband didn't owe us a dime and that there is no where it been written that we collected part payment before leaving for holiday. The scenario looked like a film trick to everyone of us and we couldn't comprehend how heartless the couple are.
She boldly told us that if we intend to leave her school we are free to leave because there are thousands of people looking for job. Then it's now done on us that the couple had cheated us and there is nothing we can do about it. That same week almost all teachers resigned from the school and on the long run the school couldn't survive because any parents that heard of how the school owner maltreated the staffs, started withdrawing their children till the school eventually fold up.
Conclusion
Cheating is a very bad habit and anyone that cultivate the habit will surely be a loser on the long run because you can't cheat your fellow human being and think things pertaining to you will continue to blossom, NEVER!
